Information is beautiful, as others have said, and the City of Sydney, working with Carbon Arts, is now seeking proposals for a temporary public artwork that engages with open data on Sydney’s progress towards Sustainable Sydney 2030.

Not part of GovHack, this initiative is part of ‘Sensing Sydney‘ a program to communicate sustainability through the arts, open data and public space – aiming to “bring historic and real time data alive in ways that celebrate our collective efforts to address environmental challenges.“

To be presented as part of Art & About Sydney 2013, the artwork will be placed on display from
Friday 20 September to Sunday 20 October 2013.
